County OKs $25,000 agreement with Adopt America Network for home‑study services
Summary
Hancock County Commissioners approved a contract allowing Hancock County Job & Family Services to pay Adopt America Network $25,000 for home‑study and assessment services from May 1–Dec. 31, 2026, the board’s minutes show.
The Hancock County Board of Commissioners approved Resolution #256 on April 21, authorizing Hancock County, working with Hancock County Job & Family Services (HCJFS), to contract with Adopt America Network for home‑study and assessment services.
Cindy Land presented the item and told the board, “The cost of this agreement is $25,000.00 and will begin on May 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026.” William Bateson moved to approve and Timothy Bechtol seconded; the motion passed 3‑0.
The contract language in the minutes indicates the funds will cover home‑study and assessment work for HCJFS; the minutes do not specify whether the county or HCJFS will separately track program outcomes or whether additional appropriations will be required beyond the $25,000 listed in the resolution.
